Ekhuluma ekuvulweni komhlangano lo wamalanga amabili, uAmbassador Welile Nhlapho wakwele South Africa, uthe ulethemba lokuthi amanxusa akulo umhlangano azabona lapho iKPCS esilela khona bethule izinqumo ezizakwenza kube lula ukulwisana lomkhuba wokusetshenziswa kwamadayimana ezimpini.
Umphathintambo wezemigodi osanda kukhethwa eZimbabwe umnumnzana Walter Chidhakwa uthi uthatshiswe yikuthi iZimbabwe ingena lo umhlangano ngesikhathi indlela egebha lokuthengisa ngayo idayimana isiyemukelwe yinhlanganiso ye KPCS. Uthi njengomphathintambo omutsha kulolugatsha, ulethemba lokuthi uzafunda okunengi kulo umhlangano.
